used to think i was so wise
yes, my words were so clever
and now i stare at my demise
regretting my foolish endeavour

i thought my words could hold you
that they would show you my heart
but you just saw right through
my carefully crafted piece of art

All I need is,
The stars,
The moon,
The sea,
The night,
All I need is,
You.

I shall live or not,
But I'll keep you up eternal in my words.
I shall wither with age,
But I'll resurrect ages for our love.
I shall tear & break,
But I'll keep you intact & stitched.
I fight with you like life,
But I will fight the life for you.
I have been in love,
Like the sun loves the sky.
I have been love,
Like the night loves the stars.
I have been in love,
Like dreams love sleep.
I have been in love,
Like candle loves flames.

I have been in love with you,
I will be in you with love.
You will stay in love with me.

We are in the loop of love.
We are the love in loop.

We can stop and see the leaves
stretched out above our head
Our heads are not so high
And it's only ground we tread
My favorite part of life
Just to breathe
As I lay and watch the stars
I feel the ground beneath

Connecting me
We can stop and see the leaves
But what's connecting me
Like roots spread out in all directions
Our heads are not so high
It's the simple ground we tread
And in the soil
Our lives we toil

Yes our blood is in the soil
And I just breathe
I thank God for food to eat
I feel the ground beneath
As I lay and watch the stars
Stretched out above our heads
Our dreams are powerful
It's the simple ground we tread

My favorite part of life
Connecting me
The stars up high in heaven
The roots of mighty tree
And I just breathe
Our lives we toil
I thank God for food to eat
And in the soil

I woke up to the sound
of moon on my skin
and velvet on my lips.

The scent of pine cones
will always
smell like
a memory I lost
long ago
of home.

dear quinn,

you made it
to twenty
even though
you never thought
you would.

that's Something.

you're Something.

love,
quinn
